<p>In this book you will discover the process evolved in modeling a Home in AutoCAD from hand-drawn sketches to a completed two-storied home. You will start by importing hand sketches and then create two-dimensional floor plans and elevations. Later you will move on to 3D modeling and create exterior and interior walls doors balcony windows stairs and railing. You will learn to create a roof on top of the home.<br><br>You will add materials to the 3D model create lights and cameras and then render it. Also you will learn to prepare the model for 3D printing.<br><br>Table of Contents<br>Part 1: Creating 2D Architectural Drawings<br>• Starting AutoCAD 2023<br>• Creating Layers<br>• Creating Grid Lines<br>• Creating Walls<br>• Creating Doors and Windows<br>• Creating Stairs<br>• Creating the First Floor Plan<br>• Creating the Sliding Doors<br>• Creating the Balcony<br>• Creating Kitchen and Bathroom Fixtures<br>• Adding Furniture Blocks<br>• Adding Hatch Patterns and Text<br>• Adding Text Labels<br>• Creating Elevations<br>• Hatching the Elevation Views<br>• Adding Dimensions<br>• Creating Grid Bubbles<br>• Layouts and Title Block<br>• Printing<br>• Share Views<br>• Compare Drawings<br><br>Part 2: Creating 3D Architectural Model<br>• Importing 2D Drawings<br>• Creating 3D Walls<br>• Create the Ceiling<br>• Creating Doors on the Ground Floor<br>• Creating 3D Windows<br>• Creating 3D Stairs<br>• Modeling the First Floor<br>• Creating the Balcony<br>• Creating Railing<br>• Creating the Roof<br>• Creating the Terrain surface<br><br>Part 3: Rendering<br>• Adding Materials<br>• Adding Cameras<br>• Adding Lights<br>• Rendering<br>• Preparing files for 3D printing<br><br>Download Resource files from www.tutorialbook.info</p>
